The noise is fading. The builders remain. What are you diving into this week? 👇🚀

Most “Play-to-Earn” games are just luck-based with extra steps. You pay, rely on luck, rewards fade, and players eventually leave. That model is dying. Games like @playAxieDOM proves why skill-based Web3 gaming wins: • You actually improve with every run • 90% entry fees back to players • Weekly USDC prizes + instant blessings • 3-5 min runs where your decisions matter I tried it once and instantly got the hype. Skill-first games = real retention + sustainable economy. The old “farm & dump” era is dying. Drop your best floor 👇

Tried @playAxieDOM for the first time… and yeah… I get the hype now 👀 Axie: Den of Mysteries (DOM) is a fast-paced dungeon crawler where your skill actually decides your rewards. • 3–5 min runs • Go deeper → earn more • Weekly USDc prize pool • Rare Blessings = instant payouts • 90% of entry fees go back to players Super simple to start, but gets intense real quick.

Tried @MedievalEmpires for the first time… ended up grinding quests longer than I expected 😅 What I liked: • Real strategy + progression • Quests tracked on @Immutable Play • Smooth onboarding (Google login) • Now live on Android Lowkey one of the smoother web3 strategy setups rn..

People saying Axie copied OCH clearly missed the point. This is a collab, not competition. Axie Infinity x Onchain Heroes = combining strengths on Ronin Network! Good games aren’t built in isolation. They’re built together. Den of Mysteries is just the start. x.com/AxieInfinity/s…

.@WilderWorld is now playable (FREE on Epic Games Store) I tried the open world & here’s my honest take: • City looks insane at night (neon, reflections, AAA vibe) • Breach missions are fun (fight + loot mid-combat) But: • Performance needs work • Too dark to see clearly • Combat & AI still basic Driving is live and the world feels active! Overall: strong potential, but still early 👀

93% of web3 games are dead. The remaining 7%? They’re about to make web3 gaming inevitable.

Day 4 still grinding hard on Ragnarok by @Mintory_labs Here's Progress update 👇 • Reached Lv. 27 • Cleared Robot Factory (7–10) • Farming mats for weapon + armor upgrades Taking it step by step… stacking resources before the next push. Also grinding Immutable Play quests on the side 👀 → Free shot at earning $IMX just by playing Next goals: • Push Lv. 50 • Then go all-in on PvP ranking grind Still figuring out some mats + optimization… but improving every run. The grind continues 🔥

Ronin is leading the charge for gaming. Here’s what’s happening this week on @Ronin_Network • Ronin Ethereum L2 migration coming May 12 which means better security, better rewards, big shift for the ecosystem. • Fableborne Season 5 adds Hero Equipment: new raid strategies, rarity system, upgrade mechanics. • Pixels keeps expanding introducing T5 industries: new quests, recipes, deeper endgame loop. • Cambria Dungeons in development: fast, skill-based runs built for onboarding. • Grand Arena crossed $1.35M prize pool. • Fishing frenzy Chapter 3 incoming: lots of new features, more multiplayer, smoother gameplay. • Atia’s Legacy playtest saw 8.7K dungeon run showing strong demand for hardcore gameplay.

Ronin is coming home to ethereum on May 12th! Here's everything you need to know 👇 Key Points: • Becoming an Ethereum L2 powered by Optimism OP Stack • Ethereum-level security + data availability • Inflation dropping from more than 20% to less than 1% (~20x cut) • Introducing Proof of Distribution This completely changes how value flows in the ecosystem. Builders now earn from real on-chain impact: NFTs (20.95%), DEX (20.54%), gas (18.13%), contracts (16.37%), active users (12.89%), new users (11.12%). And the treasury? Now a growth engine: • Sequencer profits (gas revenue − costs) • 90M RON allocated to staking • Marketplace fees 1.25% Note: There will be 10 hrs of downtime on 12th may, also games like axie infinity may be paused.

Any tips for fast lvl up? The grind is ON 🔥

.@playcambria is cooking something BIG 👀 Dungeons is coming to mainnet this May… and it changes everything. Here’s what’s coming with Dungeons 👇 • Instant gameplay: no long tutorials or grind • Deposit → enter → try to multiply your run • Diablo × roguelike style, but faster & higher stakes • Short, streamable sessions built for scale • Skill-driven, easy to learn but hard to master • Designed as the main entry point for new players And this is just phase one: • Hardcore PvPvE expansion already planned • New hub (Ashford’s Hollow) connecting everything • Islands + Arena + Dungeons all merging into one universe • Genesis launch getting closer Cambria is building a 24/7 onchain gaming economy. And if it works… This could be how the next wave of players enters Web3 gaming.

Ronin is coming home to Ethereum on May 12th 👇 After 4 years of scaling Web3 gaming, ronin reconnects to Ethereum. A major upgrade for the ecosystem: • RON inflation drops from 20% to <1% • OP Stack integration for better security • New treasury inflows (gas, fees, staking) Builders can earn RON based on real contribution: Gas usage, active users, NFT + DEX volume & overall on-chain activity. What to expect: • ~10 hours downtime on May 12 • RPC nodes need to upgrade • Staked RON will be auto-unstaked

Necron Amulet Shards mint just went live. This is basically the early entry into Necro Kingdom. Phase 1 details: • 9,000 supply • $1.9 per shard • live for 72 hours (from 21th Apr 16:00 UTC to 24th Apr) What you’re actually getting: These shards turn into Necron Amulets later. 100 shards = 1 amulet (random rarity) Amulets unlock things like seasonal campaigns + rewards. Also worth knowing: The game isn’t dependent on this mint, it’s being built either way. Later phases will show gameplay + run playtests Early buyers just get better pricing. If you’ve been watching this project, this is the earliest entry point. Check it out, DYOR, and only ape if it makes sense.
